At press time, a U.S. Supreme Court ruling on the constitutionality of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was imminent and may have occurred since this edition went to press. Regardless of the outcome, the ruling is expected to have important repercussions in law, politics and health policy.
The ramifications of the court’s decision will be discussed at the first of what is planned as an annual Mayor’s Healthcare Economy Conference, hosted by Lexington Mayor Jim Gray.
